Freeman-on-the-land idiocies

Aww, chemtrails, that's old school fuckwittery.

I remember when chemtrails first started becoming a thing among loon circles. It's never really gone away since then, but back then it was just another one of a thousand weird things that tinfoilers believed in.

But now it seems that QAnon acts as an aggregator of every damn conspiracy theory on the planet. There were Grand Unified Conspiracy Theories before Q, but since then it's almost as if the conspiracy mindset has become a kind of new religious movement in itself. And they want to "save" the children so badly!

I am not sure it's about the weather TBH, he refers to 'killer pilots', grey clouds & rain don't tend to kill*, so I am fairly sure it's chemtrails, or maybe he thinks they are creating clouds out of covid vaccines, fuck knows.

* except in extreme weather events.

What he calls chemtrails, the rest of us call the weather.

And they do it just as badly in Spain.

Fair play for trying.

The 'Angry Potato' is one of the main ant-vaxxers and freeman on the land loons, and here he is making a twat of himself & getting a parking tickets, totally brainless.



WE HAVE TO TAKE BACK CONTROL!!11!!

I don't get why some of the loons still believe this shit, they lose every time they end up in court.

I find the emoji's give this much more gravitas that the normal FOTL statements.

The woeful lack of ambition of these latter day "sovereign citizens / freemen on the land" compared with the early pioneers must surely be a sign of the terminal decline of the capitalist system:

@egavactip: I made a post a few minutes ago about the ability of QAnon adherents to believe the most outrageous things. It amazes me but does not *surprise* me, because I've encountered this before. I want to...…

I think this could be something to do with chemtrails...

More like chemicals.

This dude's clearly been taking too many.

this remains one of my favourite urban threads. Always great for a good chuckle

These loons love the concept of contracts, don’t they? The one thing their entire belief system seems to gyrate around.

I remember crossing swords with one such individual on another forum who kept saying countries don’t exist. From a purely physical standpoint he was kind of right of course, but when I retorted that ‘contracts’ don’t really exist either, and were nothing more than pulp wood pressed into a thin substance known as paper with ink markings on it, he got very agitated

I once had a social housing tenant who insisted he was a Freeman and we weren't allowed to charge him rent or take action to recover the rent we shouldn't be charging him . His beliefs didn't prevent him from claiming Housing Benefit to pay the "illegal rent". They did stop him from claiming other benefits, his dad supported him with a weekly allowance (I always suspected that the dad did this so he wouldn't come around to see him) .

I moved on to another patch but found it later that he was eventually evicted for rent arrears & went to live in a squat.

Traffic Wardens probably get more of these loonies than anyone, Plod can at least arrest them and slap the cuffs on.

Sigh yes yes we do. Whats more annoying is when they come up to you and want to ask you a Question. So you answer expecting to have to explain parking rules or give directions. You just end up in a barking conversation and waste 20 mins.
have one loon has nearly 2 grand of parking fines with the bailiffs because he believes if he parks on a dead-end covered by double yellows lines but doesn't park on the double yellow lines we cant issue him a ticket

I don't the see point of getting shouty at Traffic Wardens, especially the with the situtation the cockwomble in the video above is in (The FoLTer of course) he's parked on Double Yellows. Take the risk of parking on Double Yellows and own it when you are caught, or don't be a lazy fucker park somewhere legal and walk.

Apparently, I'm worse than the Gestapo the Nazis the Stasi (which at least was unique ) etc etc because I point out to someone they are in a no stopping at any point place and could they please move. rather than just writing an instant ticket and shoving it in the post. Which IMHO is a shit thing to do even if legal .

 

[cupid_stunt]

The 'Angry Potato' has got a speeding fine & sent it back.

 

[beesonthewhatnow]

Yeah, that'll definitely work

 

[Spymaster]

I'm going to do that with my tax bill

Should work for at least council tax, according to this expert.

Well, the Stasi were over East Berlin like a rash issuing parking tickets. In truth,. they should have been jailing Trabbies for masquerading as cars.

And they'd STILL be paying a penny more than those "thoughts" were worth...

You can get a ticket if you drive a trabant.
Not in our database.
But that's punishment enough.

I suppose in Court they could fall back on the Catch 22 defence (can't find the quote, but from memory along the lines of): "What would happen if we all did that?" "Then I'd be pretty bloody silly to do anything different."

He will probably end up in court, where reality will finally hit him full on in the face.

Just like it always does in these 'Freeman on the Land' cases, they never win, and you would think they would know that, clearly not very good at doing their own research.

I wonder how many times the average FOTLer is slapped down in the courts? I get that this kind of stuff is spread about to take advantage of the desperate, but I don't get how anyone can continue cleaving to that kind of bullshit after the first one or two times that they get royally fisted by the long arm of the law. This kind of shit has never stood up in court, and it boggles my mind that there are significant numbers of people looking at this stuff who can't think to ask for truly successful examples of FOTLer nonsense . At best they might cause a bit of confusion and maybe delay things a little, but I think even that minor and dubious benefit is becoming less effective, as the law courts gain an increasing familiarity with the FOTLers' cargo-cult misunderstanding of how the legal process works.

If getting out of paying taxes was as easy as buying some documents online and declaring yourself a sovereign citizen or whatever, then it would already be common knowledge, or at the very least you would be able to hire professionals who would give such advice. These people act like the state is some kind of computer game which lets you do anything you want if you enter the right cheat codes.

My guess is that most people who fall for this shit will try it on, and then quickly fold when they get the letter with all the capital letters and red ink. There will be a small minority who will make a big thing about it, and take it to the nth degree, and of course we'll get to hear all about those people (think of those TV licence evaders who start giving it all the FOTL bullshit in court, for example).
